Cleared for Week 13 action
Parsons returned to practice Wednesday as a full participant after sitting out Tuesday's walk-through session due to an illness, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Parsons' ability to take the field Wednesday without restrictions clears the way for him to play Thursday against the Seahawks. The star linebacker has accrued 40 tackles, 11.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery through Dallas' first 11 games of the season.

Posts 1.5 sacks in Week 12 win
Parsons registered three tackles (two solo), including 1.5 sacks, in Thursday's Thanksgiving 45-10 rout of Washington.
Analysis: Parsons combined with Dante Fowler for a split sack in the second quarter and added a solo sack in the fourth. The star linebacker has 4.0 sacks over the past two weeks and 11.5 through 11 games on the season. Parsons is well within reach of the career-best 13.5 sacks he registered last year.

Leads sack parade Sunday
Parsons recorded six tackles, including 2.5 sacks, in Sunday's win over the Panthers.
Analysis: The Cowboys brought down Bryce Young seven times in total in a 33-10 rout, with Parsons setting a new season high in sacks along the way. The third-year pass rusher has 10 sacks in 10 games to begin the 2023 campaign, putting him on pace to shatter the career-high 13.5 he racked up last season.

Busy in loss to Philly
Parsons recorded nine tackles (five solo), including 1.5 sacks, in Sunday's loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: He piled up three QB hits in total, and Parsons collected the sack on a second-half play in which Jalen Hurts appeared to injure his knee, although it was contact from a falling DeMarcus Lawrence that seemed to do the damage. Parsons is up to 7.5 sacks through eight games this season, tying him for eighth in the league with Philly's Haason Reddick and Baltimore's Justin Madubuike.

Collects sixth sack
Parsons recorded two tackles for loss, including his sixth sack of the season, in Sunday's win over the Rams.
Analysis: He had three QB hits in total and added in a pass defended for good measure. Parsons is on pace to top the career-high 13.5 sacks he racked up in 2022, and he could accomplish something only done once before in league history by Lawrence Taylor in 1981-83 -- be named a First-Team All-Pro in each of his first three NFL seasons.

Picks up fifth sack in MNF win
Parsons recorded two tackles (one solo) and one sack in Dallas' Week 6 win over the Chargers Monday night.
Analysis: Parsons had been quiet most of the evening before sacking Justin Herbert on what would be the Chargers' final drive of the game. The Defensive Player of the Year candidate is up to five sacks through six games, adding seven tackles for loss, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

No injury designation for Week 5
Parsons (knee) has been cleared to play against San Francisco on Sunday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Parsons hurt both his knee and ankle Week 4 against New England and logged a pair of limited practice sessions to begin this week. However, he was able to practice in full Friday, setting him up to play in an NFC showdown versus the 49ers on Sunday. Parsons is tied for seventh in the NFL with four sacks on the season.

Limited practice Wednesday
Parsons (knee) was a limited participant at the Cowboys' practice Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After suffering both knee and ankle injuries in Week 4 versus the Patriots, Parsons was able to log a limited session to open the week. The 24-year-old is expected to be able to suit up Sunday versus the 49ers, but his status is worth monitoring at practice the rest of the week.

Expected to play Sunday
Parsons is dealing with knee and ankle injuries but is expected to be available for Dallas' game against the 49ers on Sunday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons suffered the injuries during this past Sunday's win against New England but it didn't slow down the star pass rusher, as he still managed to log five tackles (two solo), including a sack. While the 2021 first-round pick may be a limited participant when the Cowboys resume practicing Wednesday, the injury isn't expected to keep him out of the Week 5 matchup between two of the NFC's top teams.

Five tackles, sack in loss
Parsons recorded five tackles (two solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 28-16 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Although Dallas lost, Parsons secured a season-high in tackles while also notching his fourth sack of the year. The 24-year-old has now compiled 12 tackles, including four sacks, a pass deflection, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over the first three weeks of the 2023 campaign.

Two more sacks Sunday
Parsons recorded four solo tackles, including two sacks, and recovered a fumble in Sunday's win over the Jets.
Analysis: The Cowboys' defense was dominant once again, producing three sacks and three INTs while holding Zach Wilson and the Jets offense to just 10 points, and Parsons was the disruptive engine of the unit. The third-year superstar has three sacks through two games to begin the season, and Parsons figures to be busy again in Week 3 versus the Cardinals after QB Joshua Dobbs was sacked three times and lost two fumbles in Arizona's opener against a fierce Washington pass rush.

Opens sack account in Week 1
Parsons recorded three tackles, including a sack, in Sunday's 40-0 rout of the Giants.
Analysis: The Cowboys sacked Daniel Jones seven times in total in a dominant performance, and Parsons was a constant presence in the Giants backfield even when he wasn't the one to actually bring the QB down. After delivering 26.5 sacks in 33 games over his first two NFL seasons, the Penn State product is among the favorites to lead the league in that category in 2023.

Back to full strength
Parsons (lower leg) was back in full pads for the start of practice Wednesday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons left practice early Tuesday and had his leg wrapped afterward due to getting kicked accidentally. However, the star linebacker was able to make a quick recovery, which is good news for the Cowboys' defense.

Suffers injury during practice
Parsons left practice early Tuesday after suffering a lower-leg injury, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Parsons was later seen standing with his leg taped up, stating that he got kicked and was going to get it looked at, according to Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News. There's certainly no reason to rush back the Penn State product, and his ability to stand under his own power post-injury can easily be viewed as a positive. Parsons will now focus on getting healthy as he awaits a diagnosis on his injury.

Versatility to be emphasized
Parsons says he's more interested in making impact plays all over the field than he is in winning the sack title in 2023, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: "Just playing chess, just being able to move around, that's the special ability that I have, that I want to incorporate," Parsons said Thursday. "We're doing a lot of special things. I don't want to give a lot away right now, but it's going to be a really cool year. I'm probably going to play like eight positions this year." The 24-year-old played just over 80 percent of his snaps in 2022 along the line of scrimmage, nearly double the 41.9 percent mark he recorded as a rookie, but defensive…read more

Up to 251 pounds
Parsons said Tuesday that he currently checks in at 251 pounds, having added weight in anticipation of taking more snaps at defensive end in 2023, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Parsons was 246 pounds at the 2021 NFL Combine -- where he ran a 4.39-second 40-yard dash -- and was listed at 245 last season. He instantly became one of the best defenders in the league and has never missed a game because of an injury, but he said nagging health concerns last season prevented him from being at his best. Parsons nonetheless tallied 65 tackles, 13.5 sacks, three forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries en route to earning All-Pro honors for a second time in two years. He…read more

Big sack numbers in 2022
Parsons recorded 65 tackles (42 solo), including 13.5 sacks, over 17 regular-season games in 2022. He added three passes defended, three forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries, one of which he returned for his first NFL touchdown.
Analysis: With the second-year defender didn't take a huge step forward with his production after his dazzling rookie campaign, Parsons still finished seventh in the league in sacks. He could have posted even bigger numbers in that category were it not for nagging injuries down the stretch, however, as he had 12 sacks through the first 11 games. Parsons' hybrid role hurts his tackle totals, and in formats where he solely qualifies as a linebacker and not a defensive end, his IDP value is muted. With Dan…read more

Half sack against Commanders
Parsons recorded two tackles including half a sack in Sunday's loss to Washington.
Analysis: The second-year defensive star saw his prolific sack pace slow down over the final six games of the regular season due to various injuries, but Parsons still finished the year with 13.5 sacks, a new career high. His ability to rebound could be one of the keys to a Cowboys victory in the wild-card round against the Buccaneers, after Parsons sacked Tom Brady twice back in Week 1 during their first meeting this season.

Cleared for action
Parsons (hand) is active for Thursday's game against the Titans, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons was added to the injury report Tuesday, though he managed a pair of limited sessions ahead of Thursday's matchup. That'll be enough for him to suit up and likely serve in a significant role against Tennessee. Parsons has managed five sacks across his last six games and will look to get plenty of pressure on Joshua Dobbs, who'll start for the Titans in place of Malik Willis.

Questionable for Thursday night
Parsons (hand) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Titans, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Parsons landed on the injury report Tuesday as a limited participant due to a hand injury and remained limited during Wednesday's session, ultimately taking a designation into the Week 17 game as a result. Leighton Vander Esch (neck) has already been ruled out, so if Parsons is also sidelined, the Cowboys will be without two of their starting linebackers for Thursday's primetime matchup.

Dealing with hand injury
Parsons was limited in practice Tuesday due to a left hand issue, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Parsons overcame an illness to play in Week 16 against the Eagles, but he's now dealing with a left hand injury. The linebacker had the hand taped up Tuesday while speaking with reporters, though he expressed confidence that he'll be able to suit up Thursday versus Tennessee. "It's football. It's the reality of it," he said. "Play a physical sport. That's all. I'm good though."

Playing in Week 16
Parsons (illness) is active for Saturday's game against the Eagles, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: An illness kept Parsons off the practice field both Tuesday and Wednesday, but he was able to return Thursday as a limited participant and now is feeling well enough to suit up for Week 16 action. The Eagles will be without franchise quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) on Saturday, so Parsons will set his sights on quelling Gardner Minshew.

Trending toward playing Saturday
Parsons (illness), who is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Eagles, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: While battling an illness this week, Parsons failed to practice Tuesday and Wednesday, but he got back on the field Thursday as a limited participant. With another 48 hours having passed since that final practice of the week, Parsons is presumably feeling healthier and trending in the right direction as the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff approaches. If he's active as anticipated, the star defender shouldn't face any major restrictions with his snap count.

Status in question for Week 16
Parsons (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's contest against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Parsons was away from the Cowboys both Tuesday and Wednesday due to an illness. With his return to team facilities Thursday, he was expected to take on a "full workload," according to coach Mike McCarthy. Instead, Parsons went down as limited, and now his status for Week 16 won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before Saturday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If he's active, Parsons won't be getting after the Eagles' typical starting quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder), meaning the pass rusher's main…read more

Sits out another practice Wednesday
Parsons (illness) didn't practice Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Parsons will go down as a non-participant on the Cowboys' practice report for the second day in a row, giving him one more opportunity to get back on the field before Dallas decides whether he carries a designation into Saturday's game versus Philadelphia. Considering the playoff implications at stake this weekend, it would be surprising if the star linebacker ends up sitting out Saturday, but his status will still be worth tracking leading up to the contest.

Listed as DNP with illness Tuesday
Parsons (illness) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Although Dallas didn't hold an official practice Tuesday, Parsons likely wouldn't have participated given his designation as a non-participant on the injury report due to an illness. It would be surprising if Saturday's divisional matchup against Philadelphia accounted for the second-year pro's first absence of the 2022-23 campaign, though he'll probably need to practice in some capacity either Wednesday or Thursday to ensure he suits up this weekend.

Racks up 13th sack
Parsons recorded two tackles including a sack in Sunday's overtime loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Offenses have committed extra resources to preventing Parsons from wrecking plays, and the sack was his first in three games. The second-year linebacker is still up to 13 sacks on the season, tying his rookie total in two fewer games, and he's currently fourth in the NFL in that category behind Nick Bosa (15.5), Matthew Judon (14.5) and Myles Garrett (13.5).

Another virtuoso performance
Parsons recorded three tackles, including two sacks, in Thursday's win over the Giants.
Analysis: New York was able to hold the Dallas pass rush mostly at bay in the first half, but Parsons finally got to Daniel Jones after halftime as the Cowboys took control of the game on both sides of the ball. Parsons has 12 sacks on the season, leaving him one back of Matthew Judon for the NFL lead.

Analysis: Parsons was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice report before being listed as limited Tuesday and Wednesday.

Analysis: Parsons logged two straight limited sessions after not practicing Monday on account of the left knee injury. The star defender suffered the injury during the Cowboys' blowout win over Minnesota, but he returned to the contest after a brief exit. Parsons didn't require an MRI on the injured knee, and after managing limited practice activity, the expectation is that he'll suit up Thanksgiving Day, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic.

However, he was able to return and finish Week 11 with four tackles, including two sacks, and a forced fumble.

Parsons collected four tackles, including two sacks, in Sunday's win over the Vikings.

Parsons left Sunday's game for a brief stretch as he got checked out for a potential leg injury, but he was able to return to the field.

Returns to game
Parsons (knee) has returned to Sunday's game against the Vikings, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Parsons had his left leg rolled up on late in the third quarter Sunday but returned to the field midway through the fourth quarter, even with the Cowboys holding a significant lead over the Vikings. Given his return in the lopsided matchup, it seems unlikely that Parsons will be hindered much by his injury going forward.

Picks up knee injury Sunday
Parsons departed Sunday's game at Minnesota due to a knee injury, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons appeared to have his left leg rolled up on late in the third quarter, which caused him to grasp at his left knee before limping off the field. After a visit to the sideline tent, he rejoined his defensive teammates on the bench, but the Cowboys deemed him questionable to return. Considering they were leading 37-3 at the time he left the contest, Parsons likely will end Week 11 with four tackles, including two sacks.

Modest performance in loss
Parsons totaled seven tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 31-28 overtime defeat versus the Packers.
Analysis: Parsons finished in a four-way tie for the Cowboys' team high in tackles Sunday. The second-year linebacker lined up on less than 70 percent of his team's defensive snaps over the past two games, but he managed to play all but three of Dallas' defensive snaps following the team's Week 9 bye. Parsons now has 43 tackles (31 solo), eight sacks, two passes defended, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery over nine games, and he'll look to add to these totals against the Vikings this coming Sunday.

Scoop and score vs. Bears
Parsons notched four tackles (two solo) and one fumble recovery that he returned for a touchdown during Sunday's 49-29 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Parsons' impact can't be captured by the stat sheet alone, as his scoop and score was the product of chasing quarterback Justin Fields out of the pocket, then pursuing running back David Montgomery who caught a bail-out pass that was knocked out of his hands by Leighton Vander Esch. Even on a day that didn't see Parsons build on his sack total (eight through as many contests), the second-year sensation couldn't fail to make an impact.

Analysis: Parsons was a limited participant in the Cowboys' final two Week 8 practices due to the shoulder issue, but despite being listed as questionable for Sunday's game, he never seemed to be at major risk of sitting out. The talented second-year linebacker heads into Sunday ranked second in the NFL in sacks (eight), just a half-sack behind the Patriots' Matt Judon for the league lead.

Slated to suit up Sunday
Parsons (shoulder) is expected to play Sunday against the Bears despite being listed as questionable, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Since Parsons isn't dealing with any sort of lower-body injury that might affect his conditioning, he shouldn't face any major limitations with his snap count if he's indeed able to avoid the inactive list ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. The second-year player has emerged as one of the early favorites for the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year Award, having tallied 32 tackles, eight sacks, two forced fumbles and two pass breakups through Dallas' first seven games.

Analysis: Parsons landed on the injury report Thursday with a shoulder issue and logged back-to-back limited sessions to end Week 8 prep. The extent of the injury remains unclear, but it's certainly a concerning development for the Defensive Player of the Year candidate, who played a season-low 66 percent of the Cowboys' defensive snaps Week 7.

Parsons (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Parsons popped up on the Cowboys' injury report Thursday with a shoulder injury that he presumably picked up during Sunday's win over the Lions. The second-year pro will have one more shot to practice fully on Friday, but fellow linebackers Luke Gifford and Jabril Cox could see added snaps behind usual starters Anthony Barr and Leighton Vander Esch if Parsons is eventually ruled out this weekend against Chicago.

Parsons had five tackles (four solo) and a sack in Sunday's 24-6 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Parsons notched his seventh sack in as many games, with each of his previous six having come in pairs. The versatile defender also used his speed to make a touchdown-saving tackle early in the fourth quarter. That play proved to be significant, as DeMarcus Lawrence forced and recovered a fumble on the following play.

The superstar pass rusher recorded a season-high seven tackles and notched his first two pass defenses of the season, showcasing his elite versatility. However, he was flagged for an unsportsmanlike penalty following his second pass deflection, which extended Philadelphia's drive.

No injury designation for Week 6
Parsons (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons didn't practice Wednesday due to a groin issue but progressed to being a limited participant Thursday before logging a full session Friday. The Cowboys appeared to be simply monitoring Parsons, who had to briefly leave the team's Week 5 win due to the groin issue, but he never really appeared in danger of missing the divisional matchup against Philadelphia. Parsons is tied for the league lead in sacks with six through the first five weeks of the season and will look to continue his…read more

Upgrades to limited activity
Parsons (groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Head coach Mike McCarthy said that the plan for Parsons during Thursday's practice was for him to begin with the director of rehabilitation and then take part in team drills, per Gehlken. The second-year standout linebacker temporarily departed Week 5's win over the Rams after picking up a groin injury during the second half, but his ability to partake in Thursday's session puts him on track to suit up Sunday night against the Eagles. Parsons is tied for first among the NFL sack leaders with…read more

Sidelined Wednesday
Parsons (groin) was listed as a non-participant at practice Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons temporarily exited during Sunday's win over the Rams after picking up a groin injury during the second half. However, the star linebacker is confident this issue won't limit him moving forward, as he said there's "no question" that he'll be available for Sunday's game against Philadelphia, per Jon Machota of The Athletic. Parsons has recorded 19 tackles, six sacks and a forced fumble through the first five games of the season.

Bothered by groin injury
Parsons is expected to be limited practice participant Wednesday due to a groin injury, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons suffered the injury in question during his two-sack performance in the Cowboys' Week 5 win over the Rams, but the groin issue isn't expected to threaten his availability for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Even so, those planning on deploying the star edge rusher in IDP leagues will still want to track his practice activity over the next few days.

Two more sacks Sunday
Parsons recorded five tackles, including two sacks, in a Week 5 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Despite playing through a minor groin injury, Parsons still led the charge for a Cowboys pass rush that sacked Matthew Stafford five times and racked up 11 QB hits on the afternoon. The second-year linebacker is up to six sacks through five games heading into a huge Week 6 clash with Jalen Hurts and the undefeated Eagles.

Dealing with groin issue
Parsons suffered a groin injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Rams, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Parsons tallied two tackles (one solo) to begin Sunday's game but headed to the locker room shortly after halftime. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return, but Luke Gifford should see additional playing time if Parsons is held out.

Will play Monday
Parsons (illness) is active Monday against the Giants.
Analysis: Parsons was able log a limited practice Saturday after sitting out Thursday and Friday. The superstar linebacker once again has been a force to kick off the 2022 campaign, notching four sacks in the first two weeks. His availability is a major boon to the Cowboys defense, as Parsons will look to continue making an impact Week 3.

Analysis: Parsons didn't practice Thursday or Friday, but the star linebacker returned to uniform Saturday and practiced in limited fashion.

Tests negative for COVID-19
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that Parsons (illness) has tested negative for COVID-19 and should be available for Monday's game against the Giants, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Jones dispelled any concerns of a possible flu or COVID-related illness, saying that Parsons is just dealing with congestion and other cold-like symptoms. The 2021 All-Pro has quickly emerged as one of the best defensive players in the NFL, so it's possible that the team will be overly cautious in handling this ailment moving forward. Nevertheless, Parsons will have three more days to overcome these symptoms before Monday's matchup in New York.

Dealing with illness
Parsons will not practice Thursday due to an illness, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Coach Mike McCarthy said Parsons is dealing with a cold, so it seems like the star linebacker could still have a chance to suit up versus the Giants on Monday. The 2021 first-round pick has four sacks through two games, and it would be a huge blow to Dallas' defense if he were to sit out Week 3.

Not injured
Dallas isn't worried about a possible Parsons injury in the aftermath of Sunday's win over the Bengals, Clarence Hill Jr of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Parsons appeared banged up at time in the game, but there don't appear to be any lingering injury concerns for the star defender, though confirmation on that front will come when Dallas begins practicing in preparation for a Week 3 MNF clash with the Giants. Against Cincinnati, Parsons mustered four solo tackles and two sacks, giving him four sacks through two games.

Parsons recorded four tackles, including two sacks, in Sunday's win over the Bengals.
Analysis: The second-year phenom piled up five QB hits in total as he led the charge for a Dallas pass rush that brought down Joe Burrow a total of six times on the afternoon. Parsons now has four sacks through two games, with a Week 3 tilt against Daniel Jones -- who's been sacked eight times through two games himself -- and the Giants on the horizon.

Two sacks against Bucs
Parsons recorded five tackles, including two sacks, in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: The second-year linebacker was one of the few Cowboys to show up in an embarrassing 19-3 loss, but even Parsons' opportunities to make splash plays dried up in the second half as Tampa Bay was content to keep the ball on the ground and protect Tom Brady. After racking up a stunning 13 sacks in 16 games as a rookie, Parsons made it his goal to set a new NFL sack record in 2022, and he's off to a flying start.

Shines in joint practice
Parsons routinely got the better of Broncos starting right tackle Calvin Anderson during joint practice between Dallas and Denver on Thursday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Lining up at both linebacker and defensive end, Parsons blew past Anderson to get to the quarterback so often he lost count of how many potential sacks he might have racked up had it been an actual game. Last year's Defensive Rookie of the Year has been the best player in a Cowboys uniform throughout training camp, and with the addition of Anthony Barr (conditioning) to the Dallas defense, Parsons figures to be freed up for pass-rushing duties even more often in 2022 after recording 13 sacks in…read more

Setting sights on sack record
Parsons is making it his goal to break the NFL sack record this season, Cody Benjamin of CBS Sports reports. "Yeah, 15's like the minimum. 15's what I wanna hit. But definitely 23 is that goal, to break the record," Parsons said last month after filming a commercial for Madden NFL 23.
Analysis: T.J. Watt tied Michael Strahan's record of 22.5 sacks just last season, but after racking up 13 in 16 games as a rookie in that same 2021 campaign, Parsons believes he can follow it up with a truly historic performance. The Cowboys added little to their pass rush in the offseason aside from Dante Fowler, so it seems likely that Parsons will get plenty of snaps this year in which he's let loose on the opposing quarterback. Even the 15 sacks he's predicting as a floor would be impressive for a…read more

Activated from COVID-19 list
The Cowboys activated Parsons (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parson looks like he'll be good to go for Sunday's playoff matchup with the 49ers after missing the Week 18 win over Philadelphia. He otherwise suited up for every regular-season game, finishing with 84 tackles and 13 sacks to put himself in position to claim Defensive Rookie of the Year honors.

Won't suit up Week 18
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Parsons (illness) won't be available for Saturday's regular-season finale in Philadelphia, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: After he was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday following a positive test for the virus, Parsons was always facing an uphill battle to clear the NFL's COVID-19 return-to-play protocol ahead of the weekend. McCarthy's decision to rule Parsons out two days in advance of the game suggest that the star rookie may be experiencing some symptoms of the virus, so he'll get some more time to recover with the hope of being close to full strength for the start of the postseason. Despite missing…read more

Likely to miss Week 18 game
The Cowboys will place Parsons on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, leaving his availability for Saturday's game in Philadelphia in doubt, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons immediately became one of the NFL's top defensive players upon making his professional debut Week 1, and he'll finish his debut campaign with 84 tackles and 13 sacks if he can't suit up this Saturday. If vaccinated, the rookie linebacker will still have an outside chance to test out of the protocol before the weekend, but in the more likely scenario that Parsons is out, Jalen Hurts and the rest of the Philadelphia offense would benefit.

Gets to quarterback
Parsons recorded three tackles and a sack in Sunday's 56-14 win over Washington.
Analysis: Parsons saw a depressed tackle total because he didn't need to be on the field for much of the second half given the Cowboys' comfortable lead. However, even in his limited playing time he managed to record his 13th sack of the season by taking down Taylor Heinicke for a five-yard loss early in the second quarter. Parsons now has 79 total tackles across 15 games in his stellar rookie campaign.

Delivers another spectacular outing
Parsons finished with three tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble Sunday in Dallas' 27-20 win over Washington.
Analysis: Parsons' biggest highlight of the day came in late in the first quarter, when he easily beat right guard Brandon Scherff on a blitz up the middle, then sacked a backpeddling Taylor Heinicke and forced a fumble that was returned by teammate Dorance Armstrong for a 37-yard touchdown. In so doing, Parsons became the third rookie in NFL history to record a sack in at least six straight games. The 22-year-old then took down Heinicke again on Washington's next drive, bringing his sack count up to 12…read more

Collects 10th sack
Parsons recorded five tackles (two solo), including his 10th sack of the season, in Thursday's 27-17 win over the Saints.
Analysis: The rookie was often used as a spy to try and keep Taysom Hill in the pocket, and while Hill did wind up rushing for over 100 yards, his biggest runs didn't come while Parsons was on his tail. The 10 sacks not only continue to pad the Cowboys' record for a rookie, they make him one of only 13 linebackers in history who have reached double-digit sacks in their first NFL season. Parsons will look to extend his sack streak to six games in Week 14 against Washington.

Two sacks in Sunday's loss
Parsons recorded four tackles, including two sacks, in Sunday's loss to Kansas City, adding a third QB hit and a forced fumble.
Analysis: With Randy Gregory (calf) and DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) both still on IR, Parsons was once again forced to line up as an edge rusher more often than not, and his speed and athleticism gave Kansas City's tackles fits. The rookie is only the second player in the last 20 years to rack up 40-plus tackles and eight-plus sacks in his first 10 NFL games, joining Von Miller in a very exclusive club, and he's the only player in the league so far this season with 60-plus tackles and five-plus sacks.…read more

Leading tackler in big win
Parsons recorded six tackles (six solo), including a sack, in Sunday's win over the Falcons.
Analysis: He tied Jayron Kearse for the team lead in tackles in a blowout win, and Atlanta's inability to sustain drives cost Parsons a shot at another double-digit tackle performance. The rookie linebacker should get more opportunities to make an impact in Week 11 against Kansas City.

Parsons recorded 10 tackles (eight solo), including 2.5 sacks, in Sunday's loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: The rookie was one of the few bright spots in an awful day for the Cowboys, but even Parsons found himself uncharacteristically missing a couple open-field tackles. He has 52 tackles and five sacks through his first eight NFL games, and Parsons seems on track to be an IDP monster in the second half of the season.

Eleven tackles against Vikings
Parsons racked up a game-high 11 tackles (10 solo) with one QB hit and four tackles for a loss in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Moved primarily back into his natural linebacking role rather than lining up as an edge rusher, Parsons spent the night blowing up screen passes and stopping Minnesota ballcarriers in their tracks. It's the first double-digit tackle performance of his brief career, and Parsons is the first rookie in NFL history to record 10-plus tackles with four of them coming behind the line of scrimmage in a single game.

Leading tackler in win
Parsons recorded eight tackles (six solo) and three QB hits in Sunday's win over the Giants.
Analysis: While the Cowboys defense didn't manage to sack Daniel Jones (concussion) or Mike Glennon, Parsons was consistently getting into the backfield and causing havoc, and he led Dallas in tackles on the afternoon. The rookie has 25 tackles and 2.5 sacks through his first five NFL games, and his IDP value could skyrocket with Jaylon Smith no longer in the picture if Parsons is allowed to get comfortable at linebacker instead of bouncing between roles.

Thrives in return to usual role
Parsons notched four tackles (three solo) and one sack during Sunday's 36-28 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Parsons spent the last two contests lining up as a defensive end because of injuries and COVID-19 issues elsewhere on Dallas' roster, but he was able to resume playing linebacker Week 4. The rookie first-round pick now has 2.5 sacks on the year, and he handled a career-high 99 percent of defensive snaps versus Carolina. The emerging talent is quickly becoming a must-start IDP asset.

Role undetermined for Week 4
When asked about whether he will play edge for the third straight game, Parsons said Wednesday that he "can't give that stuff away," Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Parsons played linebacker in Week 1, but then he showed off his versatility by switching to edge rusher over the past two weeks while the Cowboys were without Randy Gregory (Illness) and DeMarcus Lawrence (foot). Lawrence remains on IR, but Gregory is back with the team, so it's unclear what role Parsons might play in Week 4. The rookie has totaled 13 tackles, two pass deflections and 1.5 sacks through the first three contests of the season.

Analysis: Pressed into service at defensive end -- a position he hadn't played since high school -- with both DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) and Randy Gregory (COVID-19) out of action, Parsons generated consistent pressure against Justin Herbert. In fact, per Cris Collinsworth of NBC, his eight pressures not only tied for the highest total of any player in Week 2, it's the most by any rookie since Nick Bosa in 2019.

Though the 6-foot-3, 246-pound Parsons is expected to be a long-term mainstay in the Dallas linebacking corps, he'll at least temporarily move to defensive end out of necessity after DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) was placed on injured reserve, and Randy Gregory (illness) was moved to the reserve/COVID-19 list earlier this week.

Dallas has a wealth of talent at linebacker with Leighton Vander Esch and Jaylon Smith returning and Keanu Neal joining the unit after playing under Quinn in Atlanta, but Parsons may have the highest IDP ceiling of them.
